It's hard to believe that 25 years have passed since we wore our light blue caps and gowns and left St. Mary's to embark on new adventures. We've gotten married and divorced, gained weight, earned degrees, lost weight, created new families, raised pets, worked inside and outside our homes, achieved success, traveled the world, stayed close to home, overcome obstacles, endured losses, strengthened our faith, served our country, made countless brownies for bake sales, driven in carpools, climbed the corporate ladder, started our own companies, pursued - and continue to pursue - dreams. Among us, we've done it all!
Here's our chance to catch up a little before we get to the reunion. Please take some time to tell us the highlights of your past 25 years. Where did you go on to school? What do you most enjoy doing now? Do you work outside the home? Where have you traveled? What is one thing you still dream of doing? What is your best memory of St. Mary's? We can't wait to hear from you!
Send us a current photo, too, if you can. Feel free to include a photo of you with your family. You are unable to edit information once you hit the submit button, so please review and add your “now” picture all at one time. Your information will be uploaded to the web the next day. As soon as your information is added, you will be able to send messages to others who’ve also added their info.

No. of Children: 3
From Maxine: 25 years and what a ride! Since I will be getting married in May to my true love, I put my status as married, my "new" last name will be Garcia. This past year has brought major change to my life. My "soon-to be" husband was recruited by a hospital system in Florida. Bradley is a RN, with a MBA, and is currently the V.P. of Marketing and Stragic Planning for a hospital system here in sunny Florida. We moved here last May, just in time for the hurricanes. I left my career in Human Resources to move, and I am enjoying my part-time work status as a patient advocate. It was very easy to slip into the Florida life style! I have been blessed with 3 wonderful sons from a previous marriage. My oldest JJ, is making me a grandmother in June! My 17 y/o Dominic is finishing up school in Wisconsin and will be applying for veterinary college. My youngest who is 8 (Maximilian) is here in Florida with me and is the most precocious child I have ever known. My children have truely been a major source of joy in my life and continue to do so. I treasure the friendships I made at St. Mary's and I hope to hear from them.

From Celeste: I can't believe it has been 25 years! My career choice has been law enforcement. I am a deputy with the Milwaukee County Sheriff's Office. I have been there 13 years. I am currently assigned to the training academy as a full time staff instructor. My life has had some ups and downs-mostly ups. The worst time was when my sister Colleen passed away. Colleen was also a SMA grad 1979. I have legal guardianship of an eight year old girl-Destiny. She has kept me quite busy. I am looking forward to seeing everyone at the reunion.

From Julie: These past 25 years sure have gone by fast! Thanks to all who organized the reunion and put together this website. It's great to find out what everyone's been up to. I received my B.A. from Alverno College, and have been working in the non-profit world pretty much my entire professional career. I'm currently with the Archdiocese of Milwaukee working with parishes, elementary and high schools in the areas of Stewardship, development, recruitment and capital campaign projects. ALOT of traveling around the 10 counties, but I love it. I have 3 wonderful children from my first marriage. My daughter, Rae-Ann will be 22 this July and is currently working at Marquette Univ. Nathan, 19, graduated last year from Pius and is in the 'culinary arts.' My youngest son, Jeff, will be going to Marquette High in the fall. No grandchildren (thank God!) but that would be impossible since I'm still only 17! I'm now engaged to the most wonderful man on earth and will be walking down the aisle again in April, 2006! I still see a group of friends from high school, but hope to make it to part of the reunion and to catch up with those I haven't seen in awhile.

From Jerrilee: 25 years, yes it has been!!! Can’t say that it flew, but it didn’t go slow either… Let’s see, where do I start. I am now living in South Carolina, working in North Carolina. I do not miss those Wisconsin winters. Most of my family has moved this way to. I have two kids, my son Tony is 22 and my daughter Jordan is 19. I also have two beautiful little grandbabies, Amaya Nicole who is 4 and Rylee Claire who will be one in June. Those little girls are the joy of my life, you can say I’m in gramma heaven. My parents are also living in South Carolina, they also needed to escape the Wisconsin winters. You know that song, Live like you were Dying. Well my motto is, Live like you were Living, and that’s what I have been doing… Like it also says in that song, I went sky diving, rocky mountain climbing and rode a bull named Fu Man Chu… Well, I surely have, I have jumped out of a plane (and it wasn’t even on fire), I’ve climbed the Rockies in Colorado and YES I have even rode the bull (mechanical that is). I’ve even conquered my fear of horses… I’m having a blast. I’ve gotten to do some traveling, Key West, San Diego, Cancun, St. Augustine, Vegas and the Bahama’s. And I’ll tell ya, if anyone EVER has the chance to go skydiving, do it. It’s the biggest thrill you will ever have. My next adventure will have to be deep sea fishing… I am single now, but have been married twice. My first husband, Gary, had passed away in 1990 and then I remarried, but got divorced in 1998. I work for an insurance company (boring) during the day and am a bartender by night (not boring). I have a ton of friends and between my friends and my kids/grandkids, I don’t have many dull moments in my life. I'll be heading off to Myrtle Beach in a few weeks for Bike Week. I don’t have a Harley yet, but one never knows. Unfortunately I will not be able to attend the reunion, too many things going on in the South… I would love to see everyone again, and hope to see some pictures after. The website is great, awesome job to all involved. If anyone ever plans a visit to the South, please look me up. I know where all the great sushi restaurants are. my e-mail is jerrilee.packer@thehartford.com.
